Unpopular opinion: Professors shouldn’t help you learn.

Ideally they should. But it’s on the students to learn anyway if they don’t.

Professors should inspire. Those that do do it by knowing the subject they are teaching so well that it comes naturally, and are able to bring in real world examples on the fly that answer the question everyone is asking: why am I here? 

Most profs do not inspire.

How do you define “help” ? Self learning is best learning but pointers are quite helpful

Even just content has a pedagogy though. If you think about how to structure a lecture inductively or how to frame the problem you’re teaching about, you’re helping your students learn.

Interesting lol so is it a teacher’s responsibility to have made someone prepared to learn on college with a professor?

One on one coaching can be powerful. But what we think learning is is not actually what learning is

I get what you’re saying, and think  autonomous learning should be better cultivated at school.

That would then give more freedom to the professor to inspire and guide.
